A silver lining sometimes isn't enough,
To make some wrongs seem right.

Once again, the disappearance of an all too familiar figure from the work place sparked concerns and doubts over my job. Do I continue, or do I get into the hunt all over again? So it's been two days and counting. Where do I go from here, and I've wondered that for nights.

The night sky is exceptionally beautiful today. It's been quite a while since I've been able to lie down and look up into the endless blue. Surrounded by towering buildings, maybe that's where I should be, far away from the city lights.

Whatever life brings,
I've been through everything.
And now I'm on my knees again.

Yeah, I'm thinking of retiring way before I even started my working life. Pretty cool, huh?

People have been all over the place, all over the world. Some things are moving way too fast, the world is revolving beneath us. Sometimes, it's better to slow down and let the world catch up with you.

Children, don't stop dancing.
Believe you can fly.
Away.. Away.

But I had fun today.

Taking on seven years,
The holy ghost had left alone.
Test my arms, kick like crazy.
I've been trying way too long.

Okay bad news, I guess the past week had been spent in vain trying to add some stacks of notes to my increasingly tight wallet. I'll have to try and clinch a deal or damn, exit is the only way out. Ah, so a repetition of my previous concerns is back on the books.

Side track: Manchester United is so gonna kick some ass tomorrow.

Only push the way off to fight you,
Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm not sure.

I think I'll spend two or three hours planning out the last month of holidays I have, much like what I did with the decision planning of my future studies. Hell, I need to scrimp and save like some sort of madman in order to get myself out of this whole mess. And no, it isn't gambling for I'm an honest man. (:

I'll do my best to try and win something with my mediocre skills tomorrow, against the likes of cold-hearted giants that refuse to make way for us poor dwarfs. ):

Actually, I've got nothing to blog now, haha. I think I'm damn bored and I just finished playing neopets. Don't laugh, neopets is an interactive game who teaches pet owners to be more responsible.

And that virtual pets never dies, despite not being fed for three months. (:

Getting off my chest,
The story ends.

Evangeline: Hello, how have you been. I see you've been busy with gathering up the world's left-handers and coming up with evil plans.

Polly: No, haha. I'm currently watching Bleach! I'll request to be your neofriend soon, hoho.

Liyun: Hey hello. Yeah, it's by one of my more favourite bands.

Deborah: EH, ARE YOU BACK? I didn't know! We've got plenty to catch up, y'know? Don't leave Singapore that soon now that you're back!

Town's out. Vivo is the new cool.

On our beloved tiny, sunny island somewhere on the globe, the birth of a new landmark had come forth. Millions of people had set foot on this place already. There are only two options for all visitors. One, the minute you step in, you get pushed out. And two, the minute you step in, you'll never get out.

Haha, it's funny to note that the word 'vivo' is the word that hangs around everyone's lips now. I guess it's the place to be, since it's new and as everyone describes, " damn big ". Thankfully, I wasn't the only one who got lost in there. Well, the sad thing is, I've a hunch shopkeepers in town are sobbing along the streets.

Does this mark the birth of our very first ' ghost town ' ? :D

The fire fades away,
Most of everyday,
Is full of tired excuses.

I just woke up so I'm feeling a little hangover. :D

Been experiencing recent cash flow problems, and I desperately need a job to survive on. Despite me saying that, I haven't actually went out to look for one anyway. Either that or I'm too picky, I want a job where there are many other part timers like me. Haha, can't blame me, I had my fair share of boring working hours the other time. But okay, reality is a sad situation. I'll be a good boy and look for work in a week's time.

How true is it that things look all the more pretty when you can't afford them?

But it's too hard to say,
I wish it were simple.
But we give up easily,
You're close enough to see that.

Anyway, post-exams have been good. I've been getting more regular sleep lately, and now I know why they say the human body is capable of more then just lacking sleep. It's one heck of a machine. You can stay up every night and get ugly eye bags, then sleep one night and wake up raring to go. Amazing, really.

Okay this goes out to Nicolette Ng Zining who actually thought I was ignoring her in the midst of exams. Well, no I still treasure you, you silly thing. I don't mind being the last always, haha. But you can bet you aren't to me.

It's so quiet around here it's actually beautiful. So here I am, sitting at the crossroads of my life surrounded by fields of sunflower and roses, the wind ruffling my hair as I play songs that make sense to just me and my flower friends.

It's such an emo night. The time's just about right and the songs are playing to my heart's content. I love my playlist. :D

You're the other side of the world to me.

Wha'd ya know, O's are over. Just. Like. That.

It was really okay for most of the papers. And well, the greatest disappointment would chemistry and probably emaths. Yeah, I still can't do the dumb 3D question.

The past months was really a truamatic period for me; to get over the disappointment of the prelims and aim to silence all my critics. I'd say, the critics may well be silenced but hey, I hope this nagging feeling about not making it into a good JC doesn't come true. So welcome to the blog of a typical Singaporean teenager over-loaded with worries over results.

Actually, the second the last paper ended, I wasn't filled with as much relief as I thought I would feel. Maybe it's because of how I somehow fumbled over the last hurdle, or it could be that after countless nights studing up late (and it really was late), it had fitted inself comfortably into my life scheldue. Which kinda explains why I'm up this late blogging, despite having a grand total of four and a half hours of sleep in two days. Well well, looks can be a deception.

I realised I can't really do without blogging, since I expressed myself more clearly in written language than verbally. So much thoughts, but so little people to relate to. If there's a chance to, you'll be surprised how "constrained" I hold myself in the real world, with all these emotions swirling around.

Therefore, the reason behind this recent revival is presented right before you. (:

Now that exams are over, there's so much I want to do. Language courses, new skills and opening up more to people and befriending them in the process. I'll do what I can to salvage what I left behind before the exmas, and yeah, hopefully, you'll see a 'new' me.

I've got some plans in the upcoming holidays which most probably include the first three months of next year. For one, I'll strive harder to improve on my guitar. And, I wonder where I could take French lessons.

Well, like what yixuan said, there's time to concentrate on youtube now. I'm an anime freak, I bet you don't know that too.

Coming down the world turned over.
And angels fall without you there.
And I go on as you get colder.
Or are you someone's prayer?
